The problem is:
we have
javax.mail in bundle A as mail.jar
javax.activation in bundle B as activation.jar
These jars have no OSGi activation but just export javax.mail.* and
javax.activation.* respectively.
and a 3rd bundle that tries to send an email encoded as plain/text.
This causes, the exception below since META-INF/mailcap.default inside
activation.jar is not found.
We (I should say Carl Hall as he can take all the investigation
credit) think that this would normally have been loaded when a static
class inside mail was loaded, perhaps with a context classloader (not
sure about that).
I think that one work around will be to force the static into
existence inside the appropriate bundle probably activation, but I
wondered if there is a standard way to load resources cross bundle in
Felix ?

There is no such thing as buddy classloading in OSGi and we don't have
something like this in the felix framework either. Maybe you can
explain a bit about what the problem is exactly and we can see whether
there is a different solution...

Hi,
We have a situation using javax.mail and javax.activation as
bundles in
Sling where the resources (META-INF/mailcap* ) inside the
activation jar are
not visible.
I understand from others that if the OSGi container was Equinox,
Eclipse-BuddyPolicy et al would fix the problem (ie buddy
classloading). Is
there a way to achieve the same thing in Sling with Felix or are we
going to
have to start intercepting the context classloader which comes in
somewhere?
